@crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum v1.0.0

Motivation

This package was created to add a general way to handle exception for express application with the expectation to make it simpler to handle all possible requests.

Installation

add it to your project with npm install @crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum or yarn add @crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum

Use

there are 2 different ways to integrate the main functionality of this package, either by adding the handle that gets injected to the router framework

var exceptionHandler = require('@crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum')
exceptionHandler.handle()
const app = require('express')()

or by wraping manually the routes

var wrap = require('@crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum').wrap
router.post('/', wrap(async (req, res) => {
    ...
}))

it also integrates an extended class from Error that contains a message and a status that can be used to pass diferent information to the error handle

var httpError = require('@crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum').exception
router.post('/', async (req, res) => {
    throw new HttpError('Great Message', 400, "{Response: awesome}")
}))

last but not least it also contains a middleware that can be added directly to express that handles the previous named errors.

var middleware = require('@crabas0npm/illo-ad-ipsum').middleware
const app = require('express')()
app.use(middleware)

Options

The handle and the wrap function allow configuration parameters to be passed. The default is:

{
  nextOnce: true,
  defaultJsonResponse: false,
}

• nextOnce: makes sure next can only be called once
• defaultJsonResponse: runs res.json by default when the internally returned value is an object.
